Living with a boy...

So as most of you know, David has now completely moved in with me in Stillwater...and my life has been completely turned upside down in the past couple of months, but hey, we're making it work...! Things I did not consider though when living with a boy:

(1) Cleaning up the kitchen...One night, I made manicotti. I apparently spilled some marinara sauce on the white stove, but didn't notice. David says "you cook, I clean" so I let him do that. The next day, I'm going to start dinner, when I notice the marinara on the stove, obviously from the night before. David's standing right behind me when I notice it and he says: "Yeah, I saw that today." Seriously?? If ya saw it, why didn't you clean it then?? Gah, boys...

(2) Hears, but never really listens...I have a conference at UCO that I'm going to, and my plan was, and I told him this probably 42 times, to spend the night at my mom's the night before, go to the conference, then take my mom to see Twilight. Sounds like a simple plan, right? David asked me last night, "So you're gonna go back to work after your meeting? Where is your meeting? On campus here right?" Grrr...uh, no, honey, like I told you the other 41 times...

(3) Not understanding the concept of a "pretty Christmas tree" and a "tacky Christmas tree". Those are two different things. Not to David...

(4) I've underestimated the amount of sports that can be watched at all times of the day/night.

Ok... you are sooooo funny and my personal favorites are the trash to the curb and cats to the vet!!! We have a rule at our house that whoever has the laptop with wireless internet is not allowed to also control the remote control!!! Look in to it! :)

I am laughing so hard about the clean thing, Corby will have claimed to "clean" something, I ask "Is it clean or is it "Corby clean"? Definition of Corby clean: maybe a wipey or sock was used to smear something dirty across a surface and then dog and cat hair stick to the smeared surface then a cat pukes on top of it, but it's "clean"
